Subject: Allocation of
Inspectors (Central Excise), Inspectors (Preventive Officers) and Inspectors
(Examiners) recommended for appointment by the SSC on the basis of result of
Combined Graduate Level (Main) Examination, 2010.

Sir/ Madam,

I
am directed to say that on the basis of results of Combined Graduate Level
(Main) Examination, 2010,Staff Selection Commission (SSC) had initially recommended 880
candidates for appointment as Inspectors (Inspectors of Central Excise: 734,
Preventive officers: 144 and Examiners: 02) under CBEC, as per the vacancies
reported by the Department to the SSC.However, the candidature of 13 candidates (Inspectors of Central Excise:
11 and Preventive Officers: 2) is still ‘provisional’.Accordingly, total 867 candidates (Inspectors
of Central Excise: 723, Preventive officers: 142 and Examiners: 02) are
presently available for allocation to various cadres/ zones.

2.The allocation of candidates to various
cadres has been made on ‘merit-cum-preference’
basis (i.e. candidates with higher merit/ rank had better chances of getting
cadres of their preference), subject to availability of vacancies of relevant
category in the various cadres.In some
Zones/ Cadres the allocation of SC/ ST/
OBC candidates may be more than the reserved quota, due to the reason that some
SC/ ST/ OBC candidates have also qualified on general standards or ‘own merit’.
Such candidates have been indicated in the enclosed lists by asterisk (*)
mark.The DOP&T instructions have
been followed while allocating cadres to such ‘own merit’ candidates and they
are to be shown against ‘General’ category vacancies in the Roster.The DOP&T instructions with reference to
persons with disabilities have also been taken into consideration.Each selected candidate was given an
opportunity to indicate his/her options/ preferences.Some candidates have not indicated any
option/ preference.In such cases,
allocation has been made after taking into consideration the residential
address of the candidate made available by the SSC and themerit/ rank of the candidate.

While majority of the candidates
have been allocated cadres within one of
the options/ preferences indicated by them or close to their place of
residence, the same has not been possible in some cases due to mis-match between the ‘places where vacancies exist’ and
‘places from where the candidates got selected/ places opted for by the
candidate’.

3.The List
of candidates allocated to your cadre/ zone is enclosed herewith.The Dossiers of the allocated candidates
containing their applications and other documents are being sentto the respective Chief
Commissioners.The dossiers of some of
the candidates have not yet been received.The same will be sent as soon as they are received.The matter is being followed up with the SSC
offices constantly.

4.It may
kindly be ensured that before the offers of appointment are issued, all
necessary formalities/ requirements as per the laid down procedure are
completed, including physical test, medical examination, verification of
character and antecedents, verification of original certificates regarding date
of birth, educational qualifications, caste certificate, disability certificate
and any other relevant documents, etc. In case of candidates belonging to the
Scheduled Castes/ Scheduled Tribes/ Other Backward Classes, the original castes
certificates issued by the competent authority should necessarily be checked
before the offer of appointment is issued. It is reiterated that the appointing
authority must satisfy itself fully regarding the eligibility of a candidate to
hold the post before issuing the letter containing the offer of
appointment.If any discrepancy is found
on any ground, the case may be referred to the Staff Selection Commission under
intimation to the Board.

5.The
Dossiers of the candidates who do not qualify in the physical test/ medical
examination or do not fulfill other requirements may be returned to the Staff
Selection Commission with a Certificate to that effect, under intimation to
the Board.

6.The offer
of appointment should be sent only by Registered post. If the letters are
returned by the postal authorities undelivered, the letters along with the
envelopes containing remarks by the postal authorities should be retained for
record purposes. In such cases, a copy of the offer of appointment should be
sent to the permanent address of the candidates, if it is
different from that of the initial mailing address. In case a candidate
declines to accept the offer of appointment or fails to report for duty, or
there is no response from him/her, even after issuance of a
reminder through registered post, the offer of appointment
should formally be cancelled and the candidate informed accordingly. The
dossiers of candidates who decline to accept the offer and in those cases where
the second letter is also returned undelivered, should be returned to the Staff
Selection Commission under intimation to the Board, after placing therein a
copy each of the letter containing the offer of appointment, subsequent reminder
and the memorandum of the cancellation of offer of appointment.

7.All Chief
Commissioners concerned may kindly ensure that the candidates who accept the
offer of appointment join their duties latest
by 31.10.2011 and joining status report may be sent to the Board before 7.11.2011 positively.Thereafter, the newly appointed Inspectors
should undergo the mandatory training in RTIs concerned before they are given a
regular posting.It may please be noted
that any request of the candidates for re-allocation of zone shall not be
entertained by the Board.

8.The receipt of this communication and its enclosures may
kindly be acknowledged.
